WOULD U TRADE a WD45 W/LOADER for a D19?

Thanks, Captaindana,

I have thought of baling hay here on the property.  Might be cheaper to have someone come in and bale my piddly 11 acres of pasture, but I kind of want the ability to be a bit self sufficient, and not dependent on the scheduling needs of others.  If I can sell my city house, I may buy more land, or, branch out and do niche baling.

Your comments about the D19 handling hay baling is just what I needed to hear.

thanks,

Dex

Hi, Pat,

Thank you so much for the suggestions on what to look for when I look at it Wednesday.

If you, or, others on here have any other suggestions of what to check for when I am looking this D19 over, i would appreciate all  the suggestions and help that I can get.

Hi, Cornbinder,

All of you guys have helped ma arrive at the decision to go ahead and buy it and park it along side my WD45.   I thought that it was a good price, because one just sold in the area for $4,500 a couple months ago.  It looked almost new, but this one is not bad at all from what I can see. 

I meet with the current owner toward the end of next week. 

I was the grease monkey on our farm back in the 60's, but since I have been gone since 1965, I have lost just about everything that I knew, or,  thought that I knew back then.


That is why what you and Pat the Plumber have told me to look for is very important information for me.   I really do appreciate everyone who posted along the line on their thoughts on my WD45 with Loader, and whether I should try to trade, or, sell it to get the D19. 

I was surprised that the consensus was that I should keep both.  I was happy as heck to have ONE Allis, never knew that I really NEEDED TWO, until the idea was put forth here.


Again, thanks everyone.  If anyone else has suggestions on what I should look for when I go look and, if all is well, buy it next week, please speak up.

Thanks!
